A Hipster, A Hacker, A Hustler: Making Things That Work
About this episode
Today Doug opens the container with GG Edwards, the CEO and founder of Gnara.
Doug opens the show highlighting how the outdoor industry was built on the back of solving problems for those looking to go outside. He also details how the industry attracts entrepreneurial individuals looking for ways to blend a career with outdoor pursuits. This mindset is what has allowed the outdoor industry to become what it is today.
Doug is then joined by Gnara founder Georgia Grace (GG) Edwards and the conversation goes into the broader implications of inclusivity within the outdoor industry, emphasizing how addressing specific needs often results in enhancements that benefit a diverse clientele.
Doug & GG explore the ethos of the outdoor business landscape, looking at how prioritizing problem-solving over mere profit generation is a principle that is epitomized by Gnara's mission and how, at the very least, everyone has the ability to "show the fuck up".
